Arkansas baseball opened the season with an impressive showing, overcoming the loss of pitcher Hagen Smith, drafted by the White Sox for $8 million. In a twin bill against Washington State, seven pitchers limited the opposition to three runs. Gabe Gaeckle, making his collegiate debut, excelled with five scoreless innings and seven strikeouts, showcasing exceptional command. Zach Root backed up Gaeckle's performance with a solid five-inning outing. Coach Dave Van Horn praised the squad's command and effectiveness on the mound, signaling a strong start to the season for the Razorbacks' pitching staff.
If you can command your pitches like those guys did, you can stay in the game for a long time. I think today showed that.
The Razorbacks displayed remarkable depth on the mound, proving that the loss of Hagen Smith hasn’t diminished their potential this season.
